Consume Less - Every time you open a chips packet do you know where it goes? It is dumped in animals homes. That plastic is also very dangerous for animals, some animals like birds get trapped in the plastic or they eat it, & if predators eat poisoned animals it could harm the food chain very seriously. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Make your home safe for snakes and wildlife - If you see any holes or cracks that snakes can get into, you should get it closed immediatly . Because im sure every community has had a few snakes inside at some point. For people who dont appreciate snakes too much it would be a very scary experience for them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Research about the snakes in your community or apartment - If you research about the epic in your community/apartment, It could really help you if you knew about the snakes that live near your community because you could know which ones are poisonous & non-poisonous (You could check my other blog too). Most importantly you could help me with my goal to sake snakes because you could try to make sure people dont kill the snakes near your community. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Support an NGO - To help snakes you could also support NGO's (Non Government Organization). By donating, volunteering & ect. I also learnt one thing about Tikkun Olam. You don't do it to be better than everyone else. "You do it to be a better person, it doesn't matter if you don't achieve your goals. Every step you take toward your goal makes you better than who you were yesterday." - Me --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't buy souvenirs made from animals - We all agree going on a holiday is fun. Right? But whenever you buy a souvenir please avoid purchasing sovenirs made from fur, claws, teeth & scales. Because if people stop buying these products maybe these type of things will stop being sold? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Did you know? Most people get depressed when they feel like they cant do anything about something. But remember there is always something you can do. Like Greta Thunberg, she fell into depression because she felt like she couldn't do anything to try and stop climate change. but later she realised even a small thing is enough.
